My first BOM from the Fat Quarter Shop.

I started sewing again just before Christmas. I was great to get my machine out after a 5 year break. I used to make quilts, but now I don't have much time or space to get s project like that done. I am always rather afraid that the Sweetie P's will find my pins or scissors and get hurt as well.

Anyway, after making some gifts for Christmas, I got the creating bug again. While looking through pintrest for projects and such, I discovered the Fat Quarter Shop. They had a mystery block of the month starting in a few months, so I signed up. I figured, I could make a block each month, especially if they picked out the fabric for me. As a bonus, I only had to pay for a portion of my quilt at a time.

Well, months went by, and I had actually forgotten about the membership in the Block of the Month club, until my little package arrived the other day. It was so much fun, like getting a little gift in the mail! And the fabrics are so adorable!

So far, I've only gotten time to cut the fabric.

 I really like this collection. Look at the sweet little cherries...

I can't wait to get it all together! 

The Fat Quarter Shop is very generous as well. Take a look at all the fabric I have left over! I'm sure I could make a second block, and maybe even a third! 

Oh, and they also included a mini charm pack of the entire collection! How awesome is that? 

  It is so adorable! 

I hope to get the first block pieced together this evening, so hopefully I'll have a photo of a finished block to add this evening.
